Gatherings
My daughter Hannah's box filled with ephemera words,
poetic pieces of meaning, a collection of her Callaway grandfathers broken
watch faces, skeleton keys, crystals and coins.
All gathered with love.
Garden Seed Box
Hand crafted with love, and found thrifting to love
all over again.
Letters Spell LOVE,

Burlap Luxe
I salvage for design and display.
A perfect word of love for a snug nursery, a wedding with
vintage rustic appeal, as well as a special gifting of
LOVE.
Gathered Salvage
Door Hinge
Hangs off the edge of a salvaged door-jam,
a perfect placing for a sweet dried petite bud, or
a gathering of wild clippings.
Weathered and Rough-Hewn
Rustic Pieces
Filled with window pane plasters and a 100 years of
age and decay.
LOVE
I love how my art evolves from a single slice of wood.

Doré like you I too love boxes. Especially fond of lidded boxes. Those small enough to house precious what nots to rediscover every so often. The box you created and gifted me with sits on our dining room credenza, inside are vintage rhinestone buttons I sew on my silk velvet pillows, glass beads for eyes for the clay mice I create, tiny little theatre props all neatly layered and placed inside. Magical bitty odds and ends that are contained like gifts of inspiration. Attractive boxes appear throughout our row home housing both John's and my things of importance only to us. Yes your post showing boxes resonated with me. I have noticed Hannah's box on her dresser in past photos, what a special memory box she holds dear in her heart. I loved your first love sign the one on Fifi's wedding book but this new one far surpasses in textural interest and added salvaged parts. It would be perfect in a nursery to encourage wonderment. But equally as perfect in a nesting area of a home. Like a bedroom or sitting room or den. I enjoy seeing your latest creations out of salvage and look forward to your next piece of art for whatever it will be, it will be made with soulful energy and love.

Vera
You are SO talented!
Thanks for inspiring me each time I visit.

I love this "LOVE" sign! Your best yet! It is so pretty with the various neutral tones in it and the textures! Just lovely! The boxes are wonderful for storing keepsakes and little teasures that have meaning and memories. I love Hannah's box of special keepsakes. So sweet! Having things in our home we love and that have meaning to us is so important and makes our home our own. You are an inspiration and so very talented! XO
Everything you create is so beautiful and filled to the brim with character! I always enjoy your design aesthetic of salvaged weathered pieces both found and created by you. Your home and artwork are both so authentic and natural, I especially love the "LOVE" sign pictured on the cottage bed with the light shining in. Gorgeous!! xo
Oh, and you hold the key, Doré, with French style blown over it like fairy dust. So many different sides of your talent I came to admire over the last years, and always new, even if you stay true to your special style.
It is elegant and poetic, never overdone. I admire your creations-
Your kingdom breathes inspiration, that I can tell.
Let me hug you for all you give me, your friend Méa
Wow, the Love sign is so pretty! The painted boxes are a great idea too. Lovely.

You are famous all over the world...love what you doing.....like your style....love love love Ria ❤️❤️❤️
My darling Rie, how you create something so beautiful out of things which might go un-noticed in our busy lives is transformational in more ways than one. It takes not only a creative eye but a loving eye to do what you do. And, you also know how much I have long admired you !! Just beautiful !!!
Your tender words and art evoke such strong emotions. I just love your sign, it's texture and soft at the same time. xxoo
Hi Dore,
I know this is a random place to post this (lovely post, though!) but I thought of you today with the huge fire happening. I thought I recalled that you might have a home in the fire area, and I just wanted to check to see that all was okay? Pray you have not been affected by the terrible tragedy.

♥ the l♥ve sign .. so creative.
would have never thought of it. :)
Hello My Darling , I am just checking in on you. Always beautiful over here. Hugs xoxo
Sweet keepsake boxes with precious contents... One of my sons painted a box where he keeps his prized possessions... lovely in it's own rite, it resembles more of a rocket blasting off than your soothing white and wood palette. :) I have long loved your "love" sign. Beautiful art here. Enjoy your week! Xo, ~julie
Simply beautiful :-)
Enjoy your sunday

Dearest Dore,
It is always so inspiring when I visit you here. I adore your LOVE sign.
Your creativity continues to flourish with every piece.
Wishing you a beautiful and creative week.
blessings,

Dore, it is always a treat and feast for my eyes to stop by Burlap Luxe. I am "dipping my toe in the water" again with my blog after having taken it down for a while and seldom visiting the blog world. I've found some bloggers, (who are on my reading list), are continuing to inspire me with their creativity, some are inspiring me with their courage in facing unexpected life-challenges that have occurred since i've been regularly online and others who sadly no longer blog. I am SO VERY glad to find you still here. I'm going to raid my husband's shed looking for cast offs to form the letters, l, o, v & e. Bisous, Elizabeth
